Preparations
Professional installers are highly recommended!
However, if you acquire the appropriate tools, obtain assistance, and follow these assembly steps
sequentially, the process will take time, but is fairly easy.
Assembly of the EXM2500 takes professional installers about 3-5 hours to complete. If this is the
first time you have assembled this type of equipment, plan on significantly more time.

Safety Guidelines
Successful resistance training programs have one prominent feature in common...safety. Resis-
tance training has some inherent dangers, as do all physical activities. The chance of injury can
be greatly reduced or completely removed by using correct lifting techniques, proper breathing,
maintaining equipment in good working condition, and by wearing the appropriate clothing.
1. It is highly recommended that you consult your physician before beginning any
exercise program. This is especially important for individuals over the age of 35, or
persons with pre-existing health problems.
2. Always warm up before starting a workout. Try to do a total body warm up before you
start. It is especially important to warm up the specific muscle groups you are going
to be using. This can be as simple as performing a warm up set of high repetitions
and light weight for each exercise.
3. Use proper form. Focus on only working the muscle groups intended for the exercise
you are doing. If there is strain elsewhere, you may need to re-evaluate the amount of
weight that is involved with the lift. Keeping proper form also includes maintaining
control through an entire range of motion.
4. Breath properly. Inhale during the eccentric phase of the exercise, and exhale during
the lifting, or concentric phase. Never hold your breath during any part of an exercise.
5. Always wear the appropriate clothing and shoes when exercising. Wearing
comfortable athletic shoes with good support and suitable, breathable clothing will
reduce the risk of injury.
6. Maintaining equipment in proper operating condition is of utmost importance for a
safe resistance training program. Pulleys and cables should be checked for wear
frequently and replaced as needed. All equipment should be lubricated as indicated
by the manufacturer.
7. Read and study all warning labels on this machine. It is absolutely necessary that
you familiarize yourself and all others with the proper operation of this machine prior
to use.
8. Keep hands, limbs, clothing and long hair well out of the way of all moving parts.
9. Do not attempt to lift more weight than you can control safely.
10. Inspect the machine daily for loose or worn parts. If a problem is found do not allow
the machine to be used until all parts are tightened or worn or defective parts are
repaired or replaced.

You can use any link on this chain to take up slack in the cable. (Unless the optional leg press attachment is
being used).
NOTE:
At this point you should now wrench tighten all bolts and nuts.

Cable Adjustments
Cables can stretch slightly when your gym is first used. If there is slack in the cables before resistance is
felt, the cables should be tightened. Cable tension can be adjusted in several ways:
Move the pulley up or down in Weight Stack Top M
Move the pulley up or down in Double Pulley Holder U2
Adjust the chain attached to the Main Base Frame A
Adjust the chain attached to the Small Pulley Holder W
To adjust your cables see the illustrations below. Do not over tighten the cables. If the cables are over
tightened you will notice the Top Plate d29 will be lifted off the weight stack.
